    MVP: Rd 25 v Warriors

    Sorry for the delay, just finished watching replay due to kids footy training. Unlike Manly, all four kids are in the semifinals tomorrow. 3 DCE 2 Saab 1 Sippers Vote away!

    The No-Look News (Schuster Chronicles)

    I’m going to go against the grain and hold out hope for this bloke. That kind of potential doesn’t come along often. Cliff Lyons is a Manly and Rugby League legend as is Phil Blake and rightfully so. But they were not without their faults, particularly early on in their careers, namely defensive...

    MVP: Rd 24 v Panthers

    We gave it a crack against the best team in the comp. Some **** decisions by us and the ref didn’t help, but it is what it is. 3 Big O 2 Koula 1 Ray Vote away!

    How to improve ? Positives and Negatives !!

    Pretty much agree with that mate. Only I'd give Burbo a crack at left edge ahead of Tuilagi as I think he's shown improvement in his limited chances this year and has more potential upside and hopefully he can regain some of the lower grade connection he had with Schu. Backup hooker I think it...

    Kaeo Weekes

    I'd give him a year or two at fullback in NSW Cup and allow him to concentrate on one position. We need a better plan B than Reuben at FB. I love Reuben and he does a solid job when called on at fullback but he's lack of ball playing in that role is starting to show up more and more. Weekes is...

    Don't deserve finals footy

    We don’t deserve finals footy, but neither will anyone from about 6 down. Should be top 5. The 8 team finals concept is for tv to have more post season games, and fair enough as they effectively pay the bills. However, teams 6-8 are generally just making up the numbers.

    MVP: Rd 23 v Roosters

    Should’ve switched on the tv with 15 to go… 3 Big O - more for some desperation defence earlier in the game before he started to fire in attack late. 2 Schu - He’s rocks and diamonds but his good is very, very good. 1 Koula - one of the few players to look constantly dangerous. Would have...

    Lodge, you Monster

    And that was the Roosters. If he fizzles out here, so be it, it was a low cost risk, effectively a free swing for the club. If he continues on in this form then happy days isn’t it?

    The Player / Manager Conundrum

    You mean the bloke who broke the rules of the day and sat out a year rather than honour a contract. Then publicly criticized DCE for not honouring a contract (despite breaking no rules of the time) and declared he’d never play for Qld again. And now sings the praises of the Qld captain every...

    How to cheer for d***heads

    Great read @SeaEagleRock8. Some very valid points made. I wouldn't say my support of Manly has changed at all over the years, however the amount of Rugby League I watch in general has. I used to watch every game I could along as tune in to the various tv and radio shows about League, but now if...

    [Resurrected] Edwin Ipape

    At no point did I say he was better. Clone means he plays the same style. I’ll admit Icomparing their passing games does Ballin a disservice, but my point was Croker isn’t too different to Ballin, yet one is a whipping boy and the other (rightfully so) a legend. He has a weaker passing game...

    Langer raps DCE ... Origin record looms

    This is purely speculative on my behalf but given how entrenched Langer has been the Qld setup for a number of years I'd suggest he was part of that clique that didn't want him. Makes me sick to hear Scam and Co rapping him now. DCE does well not to tell them all to **** off.

    [Resurrected] Edwin Ipape

    I don't get the Croker hate. He is basically a Ballin clone, crisp passing, high defensive work rate, rarely runs form dummy half. Ballin played exactly the same way yet he is considered a legend and Croker cops it. That is the style of hooker Des likes, he even tried to get Liccha to play that...

    MVP: Rd 17 v Storm

    Good start, couldn’t capitalize on it. 3 Sandwich - doesn’t know how to play a bad game, regardless where you play him. 2 Bully - energize bunny who went hard all night. 1 DCE - good performance backing up, particularly early on. Vote away!

    Our Biggest Point of PRIDE* under threat

    Go back 20 years we were coming out of the NE debacle, hadn’t played finals in 5 years and had Peter Sharp as coach. Five years later we beat a team over the salary cap by a record margin in the GF. We’ve been in worse places and a lot can happen in only a few years.
